Genius of the Week

A Japanese baseball pitcher called Sugiuchi was pulled out of the game because he was getting hit all over the place. Obviously frustrated, he decided that he would show his coach how he felt.

Did he:
a)verbally abuse him?
b)apologize profusely for being crap and promise to practise extra hard in training?
c)commit harakiri?
d)punch the hell out of the dugout bench, breaking bones in both hands, therefore putting himself out of action for at least 3 months and incurring a fine of 6,000,000yen (or around $60,000)

For the full story see the Japan Times (link)

Gary, old buddy. The link seems to be out of date. No mention of such pitcher on such page. Resolve mystery or expect reader dissatisfaction.

Apologies Chuck. If I want to be taken seriously, I know I cannot allow such sloppiness to continue. It will not happen again.
